[opensuse] Plugin-container locks system management!?
by John E. Perry 10 Sep '11

10 Sep '11

I just ran zypper up and got embelex:~ # zypper up System management is locked by the application with pid 4482 (/usr/lib/firefox/plugin-container). Close this application before trying again. Why on earth would firefox be interested in system management? I closed Firefox and the update is proceeding apparently normally now, but ??

[opensuse] Language issues
by ianseeks 10 Sep '11

10 Sep '11

Hi My girlfriend switches her keyboard between Thai and English (gb) and that seems to work find for typing etc. Its the only log in where we have keyboard switching. Whether the keyboard is set to "gb" or "th" the menus and applications such as "system settings" display a mix of languages (see attachment) - is there anything i can do about this ? I would prefer the language of the apps, menus etc to match the keyboard in full, especially the "gb" setting to be all English - i can't read Thai script. regards Ian

[opensuse] gtk icons fail to appear after update 11.3 to 11.4
by Tony 10 Sep '11

10 Sep '11

I recently update 2 pc's from 11.3 to 11.4 both using same repo's for non-oss,oss,update and kde release 4.7 After the update any program that needs an icon via gtk, does not display. For example in firefox 6.02 the go forward, go backword, home icons do not show (workaround for now is I installed a diff theme in firefox). When I run firefox from the command line I get a long list of errors as seen below. The Unrecognized image file format repeats itself what changes is the icon name in '' laptops@tslaptop:~> firefox *** nss-shared-helper: Shared database disabled (set NSS_USE_SHARED_DB to enable). (firefox-bin:9162): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'gtk-go-back-ltr' for stock: Unrecognized image file format (firefox-bin:9162): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed ** (firefox-bin:9162): CRITICAL **: clearlooks_style_draw_render_icon: assertion `base_pixbuf != NULL' failed (firefox-bin:9162): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_style_render_icon: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (firefox-bin:9162): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (firefox-bin:9162): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (firefox-bin:9162): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'gtk-go-forward-ltr' for stock: Unrecognized image file format (firefox-bin:9162): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed ** (firefox-bin:9162): CRITICAL **: clearlooks_style_draw_render_icon: assertion `base_pixbuf != NULL' failed (firefox-bin:9162): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_style_render_icon: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed (firefox-bin:9162): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (firefox-bin:9162): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed (firefox-bin:9162): Gtk-WARNING **: Error loading theme icon 'view-refresh' for stock: Unrecognized image file format XFCE 4.8, is completly screwed up with no icons showing for anything.

[opensuse] OpenSuse 11.4: High Load Average
by satyajit 10 Sep '11

10 Sep '11

Hello All, i have been facing a problem and i tried my level best to figure out the issue but no luck. I have tried enough googling but still no luck. So, i ma writing here to see if i can get any help. LAMP Stack: I am using a LAMP Stack: Opensuse 11.4: Linux lms1060 2.6.37.6-0.5-default #1 SMP 2011-04-25 21:48:33 +0200 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Apache: 2.2.17 MySQL: 5.5.8 PHP: 5.3.5 Architecture: We are using this LAMP stack to run Moodle. As per the architecture Moodle Config files and Moodle Data directory both are on NFS Server. which is mounted on the VM i am running OpenSuse 11.4. This NFS is build on MSS 2008 R2 cluster and we are using Microsoft's NFS software version 3. Situation: whenever there is load on the server the avg load goes high. High mean very high. VM becomes unusable. the only option left is to reset the VM to get the things normal. Even if I run bzip2 while apache is serving it leaves the apache processes in "D" state and it sometime never comes back. To fix this issue we had added one more virtual CPU to the VM. but my confusion is i was running the same thing when everything was native means all moodle file and moodle data was local to VM and it was running fine with one virtual CPU. My opinion there is flaw in architecture but i am not able to prove that. Please see the screenshot attached and log files attached to this. Recently I migrated one our new VM to this architecture and it also started giving the same issue. Load Average always goes high if you any CPU extensive work. Any suggestion or help or testing idea would help me in this situation.

Would like to get the RSS feed for the BBC but Chrome everytime I try, gives me following message and asks me to give the details for the feed. We could not find any RSS feed for this website (http://www.bbc.co.uk) This info after I am in the RSS feed page of the BBC and press the RSS logo. It should automagically give me the feed address :(. -- Linux User 183145 using LXDE and KDE4 on a Pentium IV , powered by openSUSE 11.4 (i586) Kernel: 3.1.0-rc5-1-desktop LXDE WM & KDE Development Platform: 4.7.1 (4.7.1) 12:12pm up 1:21, 2 users, load average: 0.87, 0.80, 0.74 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] Postfix - Default message & mailbox size limits
by David C. Rankin 09 Sep '11

09 Sep '11

Guys, Just a note for those running postix mail servers on the default mailbox and message size limits. Many times these settings are not referenced in the default main.cf file. Moreover, if you are using procmail or some other 3rd party local delivery agent, the errors encountered when the mailbox size limit is reached are not obvious. The salient parts are: Postfix imposes both message and mailbox size limits by default. The message_size_limit controls the maximum size in bytes of a message, including envelope information. (default 10240000) The mailbox_size_limit controls the maximum size of any local individual mailbox or maildir file. This limits the size of any file that is written to upon local delivery, including files written by external commands (i.e. procmail) that are executed by the local delivery agent. (default is 51200000, set to 0 for no limit) If bounced message notifications are generated, check the size of the local mailbox under /var/spool/mail and use postconf to check these size limits: supersff:~> postconf -d mailbox_size_limit mailbox_size_limit = 51200000 supersff:~> postconf -d message_size_limit message_size_limit = 10240000 -- David C.

[opensuse] checking for processes using deleted files

after tiring of multiple entries and blank lines in checking for replaced running processes, I have created a handy alias for "zypper ps": alias zps='zypper ps |grep -v ^\ |uniq' Just thought someone might find it handy. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
